UNC Greensboro guard Isaiah Miller, standing at 6-0, went backdoor and started to climb the ladder.
When Miller grabbed the ball, well above the rim, and threw it down, it gave the Spartans a 60-45 lead. There was still just over nine minutes remaining in the game, but that might as well been the nail in the coffin. Miller’s slam was the highlight of a second half dominated by UNC Greensboro, as the Spartans pulled off the upset over North Carolina State, 81-76, Saturday at PNC Arena.
UNC G led by nine with less than 20 seconds remaining in the game, but State cut it to three after a scoring furry, capped off by three free throws from Allerik Freeman.
